1. Dillo displays a page without the embedded GIF image, showing the alternate text instead. It starts consuming all cpu time, but still responds to keyboard and mouse input (history navigation; no new pages are displayed).
2. Dillo doesn't display a page at all. Cpu/input behaviour as before.
The problems only occur with certain local files, not http pages. Moreover, they don't occur deterministically. They seem to happen somewhat more often if one follows a link instead of loading a page from the command line. [...] But remember that so far the problems have only occurred with local files.
this is actually the brokenness of the dpi subsystem you are seeing there (file: was recently switched to be a dpi instead of native), and this behaviour occurs with all dpis (file, ftp, https, custom filter ones...) you're also lucky it "only" hangs, i see both dillo and dpid regularly crashing...
I'll try to look at your report today Matthias. People having troubles with the new dpi-based "file:" handling, or other dpis, by all means please report how. A way to reproduce, the best that you can provide. That way we can work on the bugs that otherwise we may remain unaware of. Like these. -- Cheers Jorge.-
